A Little Bit About Me...

I'm currently a student in school who has had a wide range of experience in various different subjects, specifically working best with mathematics, science and language arts in the elementary and middle school level. I'm familiar with I've been doing my best to educate myself in as best as I can, not simply for the sole purpose of filling a resume, but for the sake of learning.
When I teach, I try my best to be open minded, and to give choices to the student, rather than follow a closed-box cookie cutter curriculum. I've found it's important to find a personal way of learning for a specific student. Variety is important, because every child learns a little differently. Some kids learn by listening, others by seeing. Some kids learn only when they're making things. Encouragement and recognition when progress is attained by the student is a great incentive.

I am a retired school teacher that has been tutoring all elementary grade students, as well as intermediate students. I have a great deal of teaching in both teaching and tutoring. I feel very confident to teach all subjects in the elementary grade levels. I am a positive, sensitive teacher and I feel that all students can succeed if they are taught with the following in mind: the learning style/s of the student, the developmental level of the student, changing the motivational level of student (if necessary), an accurate evaluation of the student is analyzed, determine realistic goals and keep the student on task with an enjoyable environment that is conducive to learning.
My teaching style is usually a one-on-one approach beginning with material that is proven to be relatively easier for the student so that that we can establish an enjoyable,interactive approach. We will progr ... read more

Interactive--listening to and learning from student to determine "where they're at". Then, posing questions to enable them to find their own beginning/solution/answers. If session doesn't find a promising beginning, start from a base and progress with them. Interaction prevents or indicates "going too fast" or overwhelming them--"the eyes" are engaged or indicate "shut-down". Making the math or education "mean something" provides a reason for learning or further developing the concepts. Encouragement and sincere compliments are very important. Sharing your own struggles or an "ah-huh" moment helps ease the role differences toward a comfortable, encouraging, learning relationship.
I have tutored and educated staff to raise their knowledge and understanding in an effort to help them appreciate their role and the benefit of their effort toward the goals of the overall departm ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a college student, I held a tutoring position on campus in the remedial learning lab, assisting college students with basic math,reading and language skills. I worked a halftime schedule there for 5 years and by my 4th and 5th years, I was teaching classes, in addition to tutoring privately and in small groups in the lab. This is work I thoroughly enjoyed. In my working career in healthcare, I again found myself in a teaching, tutoring mentoring role. As a supervisor on a staff of 10 - 15, I was responsible for providing initial and ongoing training for staff, typically chair side style, one on one training.
I enjoy working with students who need to improve their reading and writing skills and basic mathematics skill, and need help building their skills. I believe anyone can learn anything they want, and that with the right help, motivation and encouragement, can achieve their e ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style, derived from a one on one approach as both a home tutor and teaching assistant, is simple: provide an open environment in which pupils feel free to ask any question. The most important aspects of tutoring are positive reinforcement, repetition, and assisting students as they develop confidence and learn to grasp and utilize the skills necessary to their academic and personal development. I feel that my personal education and tutoring experience is perfectly suited to developing a rapport with students while maintaining a professional teacher/pupil relationship.
My experiences as a home school instructor for my children at the secondary level of education, as a personal tutor for SAT and GRE test preparation, and as a teaching assistant at the university level have provided me with the requisite skills to assist students at various levels of education. In addition ... read more

My objective as a tutor is to instill confidence in those I help in their ability to learn and succeed in an academic environment. Having confidence in the ability to learn allows a person to be a lifelong learner and use their learning to be of service to others. By having a positive attitude, sharing enthusiasm for the subject matter, and being patient, persistent, and understanding I believe I can help students achieve this goal. I believe persistence and determination is the key to success. I am in a wheelchair and as such I will only be able to tutor in a wheelchair accessible building.
As a graduate of Pacific Lutheran University I thoroughly enjoyed the quality education experience I received and would like others to have a quality educational experience as well. Through earning a Bachelor's degree in history and a Minor in Spanish I have learned many important skills that a ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love to teach, and I believe my teaching style is very laid back. I like to allow my students to attempt things and try to figure it out with the information I provide. That way I know they are grasping the concepts. That is more important to me then speeding through a course just to get things done. I would be a failure if one of my students left my course not knowing exactly what they were doing. So I pride myself in slowing down if needed to ensure everyone is on the same page and can retain the information that is being taught to them.
My experience as a teacher began in my Church, I taught for 3 years in one of our Sunday School classes. My students ranged in age from 2-11 years old. After graduation from the University of Washington I was unsure if Education was what I wanted to do. So I chose a different path, and found out just how much I loved to teach. I decided to take ... read more
